Analisis Pengaruh Pengangguran Terhadap Kemiskinan di Kabupaten Rembang Menggunakan Metode Regresi Linear

Ika Nurul Hidayati — 2026-06-02

This study aims to examine the impact of the unemployment rate on poverty levels in Rembang Regency by applying the linear regression method. The data used in this study are secondary data in the form of time series data covering the period from 2005 to 2025, obtained from the Central Bureau of Statistics (BPS) of Rembang Regency. The analytical method employed is simple linear regression using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) approach to understand the relationship and the magnitude of the effect of the independent variable (unemployment) on the dependent variable (poverty). The results of the study indicate that there is a positive relationship between the number of unemployed people and the poverty level. This is reflected in the regression coefficient value of 7,294, which means that every one-unit increase in unemployment will lead to an increase in poverty by 7,294 units, assuming all other variables remain constant. Furthermore, the results of the t-test analysis show that the unemployment rate has a significant effect on poverty, with a significance value of 0.001, which is lower than 0.05. Therefore, it can be concluded that the unemployment rate has a significant impact on the increase in poverty levels in Rembang Regency. Thus, the government needs to implement policy measures oriented toward job creation and improving the quality of human resources in order to reduce unemployment and poverty rates sustainably.

Evaluasi Kinerja Proyek Pemeliharaan Jalan Menggunakan Metode Earned Value Management (EVM)

Novi Nur Ma’rifatul Qomariah — 2026-06-02

This research aims to analyze the cost and time performance of the Bojonegoro–Ponco road maintenance project using the Earned Value Management (EVM) method. This method is used to evaluate project achievement by comparing the Planned Value (PV), Earned Value (EV/BCWP), and Actual Cost (AC) to determine cost efficiency and schedule accuracy. . The data used is secondary data in the form of project progress reports for eight weeks of implementation. The analysis results show that the Cost Performance Index (CPI) value during the observation period is below 1, indicating that the project experienced cost inefficiency and is likely to have cost overrun. This is reinforced by the Estimate at Completion (EAC), which is around Rp180–190 million, higher than the initial contract value of Rp156,511,000. In terms of schedule, the Schedule Performance Index (SPI) is also below 1, indicating delays in work implementation. The Estimate at Schedule (EAS) shows a significant potential delay compared to the initial plan. The contribution of this study lies in the comprehensive application of the Earned Value Management (EVM) method to evaluate the performance of road maintenance projects, thereby providing a quantitative overview of cost efficiency and schedule adherence, as well as serving as a basis for decision-making in construction project control. Future research is recommended to further examine the factors causing cost inefficiencies and delays in greater depth, and to combine the EVM method with other project management methods in order to obtain more optimal and accurate analysis results.

Analisis Perbandingan Algoritma Nearest Neighbor dan Branch and Bound dalam Penentuan Rute Wisata Pulau Penyengat Berbasis Graf Berbobot

Nurul Hilda Syani Putri — 2026-06-29

This study aims to compare the Nearest Neighbour and Branch and Bound algorithms in determining tourism routes on Penyengat Island using weighted graph modeling and to analyze the effect of graph structure on the resulting routes. A quantitative approach based on graph theory was employed in this study. The data were obtained through direct observation in the form of distances between tourist locations, while travel time and number of steps were used as supporting data. Tourist locations were represented as vertices and the connections between locations as weighted edges, with distance used as the main parameter. The graph used in this study was an undirected weighted and incomplete graph with the starting point located at vertex A (Harbor). Route efficiency was evaluated by calculating the total path weight generated by each algorithm. The results showed that the Branch and Bound algorithm produced a more efficient route than the Nearest Neighbour algorithm. In addition, the incomplete graph structure caused repeated vertices in the routes generated by both algorithms. These findings indicate that graph connectivity influences route efficiency in weighted graph-based tourism routing.
